Thumbs down to the IOC. Review on P T Usha

I think the whole notion of inviting filmstars for an Olympic torch relay is disgusting...

Olympics is an event where we celebrate man's individualism.

The desire to be the best in the world,to stand on that

pedestal and look to the heavens as your national anthem

is played...

Those gymnasts,swimmers almost dedicate their

entire life to acheiving that one moment of fame..

and whether they win or lose is a matter of seconds

I could understand Aamir Khan being inivited.He was the one

to have had an Oscar Nomination in the Best Foreign Film Category

but what about other film stars like Bipasha Basu....

What are we celebrating...half baked filmi songs and remixes??

I think we are a nation seriously short of role models..We despise

our politicians,we stop and ponder twice before we reach out to the

police,lawyers...

The only people who get to be in the limelight are the people

of the mob and coterie culture..

In that sense,not inviting P.T Usha was the greatest sin..

She missed getting a Olympic medal by a fraction of a second

but she won for India a lot of medals in the Asian and

the Commonwealth games.She was probably the greatest

sports personality we ever had in a nation which cannot think

and act beyond cricket...

Indian Olympic Association - Thumbs dowm!!!
